Lost Narrative Poetry

Xia Ran was also slightly startled, and then she laughed dumbly and exhaled a long breath: "You are very smart, you can even think of changing your hair..."

"Can't it?" Han Lingsha suddenly looked a little disappointed. Although it is reasonable to be rejected, "But I also know that if it really doesn't work, then forget it..."

"It's not impossible, I'll give it to you if you want it..." Xia Ran shook her head, interrupted her words, and casually pulled out a long black hair from her head. It just wasn't handed over to the other party right away.

Although it was a temporary idea, after hearing about Han Lingsha's intention, he suddenly had a good idea to better follow the main plot - after all, it was impossible for him to join the protagonist's team to find immortals. Yes, it wouldn’t be bad to take a roundabout way.

At the same time, the eyes of Miss Ouyang behind him suddenly became sharp and dangerous. She stared at Han Lingsha, whose eyes lit up, as if looking at a class enemy, which made the latter feel faintly.

However, this opportunity was so rare that she tried hard to tighten her expression and pretend not to see Miss Ouyang's threatening look. The people in front of you are like gods and demons. As long as you hold one of their hairs, you can run rampant in the world, and no one in the world can be killed.

Although Han Lingsha is not a aggressive person and does not feel the need to be hostile to anyone, she and her companions will enter the bizarre world of a practitioner...

It would be best to have such a treasure as a trump card - after all, in the short period of time from the day she climbed Qingluan Peak to now, she has encountered more dangers than before when she wandered the world alone. It's several times scarier.

No matter how stupid you are, you should know that you have already touched another world, and with Han Lingsha's shrewdness, why wouldn't you consider making complete preparations? Even if you don't think about your own life, you still have to think about the safety of your friends and partners, right? You can never have too many trump cards.

It is better to be prepared than to be unprepared, so don't say that this Miss Ouyang is just pretending to be fierce on the surface. Even if she is really hostile to her because of this, she will not be able to back down at this time.

Murong Ziying's eyes moved slightly, and she hesitated for a moment, but still said nothing.

He thought about the coming of the demon world that his sect would encounter every nineteen years. It was said that the demons in it were powerful and cruel, bestial and cold-blooded. The last time they invaded the human world, the members of the sect fought desperately with them, leaving many dead and injured. Tragic.

Now that the demon world is coming again, if the Qionghua Sect cannot resist it, the world will be in crisis and all life will be in ruins. And next, Han Lingsha and others happened to join the Qionghua Sect to cultivate immortality and seek the path. If they could increase their chances of winning by one more trump card, that would be good.

However, he does not intend to harm the three of them, but will tell the truth later. After all, the three of them are still relatively junior and have not been protected by Qiong Hua. They have no responsibility in the first place. Naturally, the priority should be to save their own lives at critical moments.

Huaishuo, who was next to Murong Ziying, was a little confused. He couldn't figure out what was going on. Why was it suddenly pulled on his hair for no reason?

Liu Mengli was also a little confused. After all, she also didn't know the inside story and had never experienced the scene at Chaohu Lake. Moreover, Han Lingsha had not told her in detail about her previous experience with Yun Tianhe.

But even though she didn't know, she could still tell that this matter seemed to be very important, so she didn't speak out loud, but quietly watched the development of the matter, with bright and lively eyes.

"But before I give it to you, I will considerately explain to you the precautions in the instruction manual. You should also know that the so-called cultivation is actually divided into two parts. One is the pursuit of fullness, energy, and vitality. , until the cultivation reaches the perfect state of no leakage, this is the process of "cultivation", making up for the acquired deficiencies and losses. "

Xia Ran glanced at the long hair in his hand, and did not hand it over immediately, but explained calmly.

“Only when the essence, energy, and spirit have been cultivated to perfection, can the step of “refining” be started. After all, the three things are connected to each other. If it goes well, it will lead to adulthood, and if it goes against it, it will lead to elixir. Therefore, "refining" is the reverse part of the process, which aims to refine true gold from fire, and to transform all kinds of power, magic and magical powers from the essence, energy and spirit that all living things have..."

This was not a hair that he plucked out at random, but one of the strands that had been specially and carefully refined in his long hair.

After all, even for Xia Ran now, it is impossible to say that a random plucked hair can become a carrier for the incarnation to walk in the world, and he can briefly exert part of his power. That would be too scary.

Only hair that has been specially refined, spent a lot of effort, and combined with the magic power of the soul through the method of talismans can be used as a one-time magic weapon. That's right, strictly speaking, this is no longer a "hair", but a "talisman" that condenses his magical power.

It is true that when it comes to talismans, most people will probably subconsciously think of the element of yellow paper and cinnabar.

However, the real way of talismans is far from superficial and simple. It can even be said that anything with a specific energy structure that can play a certain role after activation can be said to be a "talisman".

——The book of Taoism says: "The talisman has no formal shape, and its spirit is based on Qi."

Xia Ran was studying various talismans and Taoism, peeling off the complicated appearances with an extraordinary perspective, penetrating into the essential mysterious wisdom in many talisman books, and keenly aware of the feasibility ——

That's why I came up with the idea of ​​using talisman-making techniques to worship my long hair and become my own incarnation carrier. After years of deductions, I have firmly grasped the feasibility of simple existence and turned it into reality.

This is indeed a very useful skill. Even if it is not as good as Sun Dasheng, he has 84,000 hairs on his body. The roots can change and respond to things as he wishes. One can turn into ten, and ten can turn into hundreds. There are hundreds of thousands of billions of changes. Rather, it requires preparation in advance. It takes time and effort to refine it just like a magic weapon. It can only be used at critical moments, but it can also be regarded as a very practical and powerful method.

However, Han Lingsha may indeed be very smart and good at seizing opportunities. However, due to the existence of certain objective factors, her ideas will still encounter some subtle problems.

"So this is the essence of cultivation? I have been taught..." Han Lingsha nodded repeatedly, watching the hair in the young Taoist's hand swaying in the wind, and then asked with some confusion, "But with this Does it matter?"

"Of course there is a relationship. Cultivation is the process of continuous practice and replenishment, and refining is the process of continuous refining and purification. The most important of them is the former. After all, if there is only loss without replenishment, then nothing can last long."

Xia Ran said this with a very interesting smile.

"So, no matter what happens, it is still just a hair... You don't think that a single hair can reach a perfect state, right? It can neither be practiced nor cultivated."

"...You mean..." The girl in red raised her eyebrows.

"That's right, the power of this hair can only be maintained at its current level at most. Not only is it impossible for it to grow any further, because it has no way to continue to progress through cultivation on its own, but it also has no way to maintain a perfect and flawless state."

Xia Ran calmly gave Han Lingsha the answer without giving Han Lingsha much time to grapple with her problems -

"So just like a normal person's hair will slowly wither after it is pulled out, it is no exception. It just won't dry up like ordinary people's hair, but will continue to lose the essence contained inside. Mana, until it is completely exhausted..."

"So...how long is it?" the girl in red asked hesitantly.

"In about ten days, the spiritual power will be completely lost and nothing can be done." Xia Ran didn't need to estimate. He had tested it before, so he gave the answer with certainty.

This is because the aura of this world is rich and vast, covering all four ends of the world. If he returns to his own dimension of reality, he may lose the effect if he cannot hold on for a day.

After all, this is the end of the Dharma era, and the spiritual energy has been exhausted to the point where it can be called dry.

"Ten days...what use can this do?"

Han Lingsha suddenly frowned, and her face looked like a bitter gourd. As a trump card, this thing must be able to be kept for a long time. If there is such a restriction, the value will be greatly reduced.

It must be used within ten days, otherwise, it will be useless in the future? If she happens to encounter any trouble, such as being chased by some terrible enemy, then it can really come in handy.

But now, she has no needs. She can't provoke any enemies because of this restriction and use up this long hair within ten days, right?

"As long as the internal rune structure is not destroyed, its effect is still there. As long as you re-inject enough spiritual power later..." Xia Ran kindly added.

"How much spiritual power is enough?"

The girl in red laughed dryly, not thinking that this was a solution at all.

"And it's definitely too late to instill it temporarily, right? And if you prepare it in advance, it will be a complete waste if you don't need it later. After all, spiritual power comes and goes. Even if it is as wide as a river, it will be exhausted one day."

"..."

"..."

"Actually, there is no other way." Xia Ran hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking about something seriously, and finally said.

"What?!" Han Lingsha's eyes suddenly lit up again. Wasn't the reason why she acted so pitifully just to make the other party miserable, hoping to make the other party think of a way to solve this problem?

"As I said, it is always a hair, so as long as it continues to grow, it must be a person with very strong spiritual power to maintain it..."

Xia Ran looked back and pointed at the girl in the green dress behind her: "It's like a pearl."

Han Lingsha blinked her eyes and finally understood, and subconsciously glanced at Miss Ouyang, who was a little proud... It seems that there are only two people with spiritual power as strong as this daughter?

She looked at Murong Ziying and then at Liu Mengli next to her.

Before the latter could say anything, Han Lingsha quickly hugged her——

"Good Mengli~"
